The New Leipzig Charter and JRC's Urban Activities

The New Leipzig Charter and JRC’s Urban Activities

Joint Research Centre (Virtual) - 26 November 2020

Joint organiser: Territorial Development Unit of the Joint Research Centre (JRC.B.3)

Discussing the findings of the EUKN study ‘The New Leipzig Charter and the JRC’s Urban Activities’, this Policy Lab also reflected on the role of science for post-2020 policy.

The EUKN study investigated the ongoing role of the JRC, the Commission’s science and knowledge service, in supporting urban policy-making within the framework for sustainable urban development proposed by the New Leipzig Charter. More broadly, it identified gaps and opportunities within the wider EU urban science-policy interface.
